Steps to convert 37/20 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 37/20 to a mixed number, we need to follow three basic steps:

(Quotient of 1 and a remainder of 17)

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [1] and multiplying it by the original denominator [20]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [37]:

37 - (1 × 20)

=

37 - 20 = 17

3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [17] and put it above the original denominator [20], and then put the whole number [1] before it
